Archaic Warm Greaves is a piece of Armor in the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom that offers cold resistance. It can be found early on in The Great Sky Island. While it is not part of the Archaic Set, it can be paired with the Archaic Tunic to replace the Archaic Legwear.

Once you’ve survived the cold trek up the snowy eastern part of the island to the Gutanbac Shrine and gained the ability to Ascend, you can use it right outside the shrine on the wooden ledge coming from a large hollow tree trunk at the top of the mountain.

Look inside the trunk to find a small recess in the corner that holds a green zonaite chest, and open it to reveal the Archaic Warm Greaves. This item will negate any freezing effects in basic cold temperature zones, and when combined with some cooked Spicy Peppers or applicable food, will fully negate even the most frigid environments you’ll find.
